Hi all, just uploaded another quick vid I made with this exhaust.
The car is a 2005 GT spec with the electric fold mirrors and headlamp washers etc that I don't think are very common on the Z's in the states from the comments I've seen?? (see my second video, ppl seem to go wild for them haha)
Exhaust is a Japspeed K2 backbox and midpipe. I also went for the Japspeed Y Pipe. The air filter is a JWT pop charger.

Some of you may have seen my older video I made with the stock exhaust too. that can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sjQEHXsGek


Still loving the car after 3 years, not too many of them about over here in the UK so it always seems to turn heads or you find people asking what car it is. I've got some more video stuff (better quality etc) to edit at some point, some more interesting stuff but I know when I was looking at buying mine I spent ages just checking out videos on youtube to hear and see one so I hope you enjoy if you don't own a Z and hope you guys that do own one like it too


Cheers

 

sounds pretty good.. congrats definitely a higher pitched pitched note than some others.

 

nice dude, i saw your other vid on youtube before when i first got my z a month ago cause i wanted to know how the jwt pop charger sounded with the stock exhaust. your new exhaust definitely sounds better!

 

Sounds great, and I like the stock look. Thats why I got the Nismo for myself.

I am really jealous of the power folding mirrors though!!

 

Wow sounds almost exactly like a nismo...maybe slightly more throaty. They did an impressive jerb.

And nice video editing.

 

Thanks for the comments

The complete system with the Y-Pipe is very much like the nismo and resembles the stock exhaust. The nice thing is the price as it only cost me £400 (about $650) instead of the nismo which is around the 1K mark.

Seems well made with decent welds and it does sound nice. The sound is quite deep and turns into a howl higher up the revs. It's always difficult to pick up the "deepness" in a video.

What I've noticed as it's bedded in and settled down is a slight metallic sound higher up the revs. I'm guessing it's got louder as it's sooted up inside with use. Sounds nice though I think, a lot like the metallic rasp you get on the Golf R32. Another way to describe it is the metallic sound you get with sports cats or decats fitted but not quite as harsh.
